    Can Lomachenko really handle a Pacquiao Punch?

    If Linares could ding Loma, forget what Davis, Haney could do let alone Manny Pacquiao.

    Ukrainian school of boxing doesn’t want to get lit up by a gangsta Pinoy!

    The Matrix never seen real slow motion!

    And that’s all she wrote!

    Loma has yet to be dazed. He was knocked down cause he was not balanced properly, but not cause he was dizzy.

    Manny hasn't knocked out anyone in forever. So I do think it is safe to say Loma can handle it imo.

        Pacquiao could arguably be stronger and faster if he were to drop down to 140. Loma's fighting bigger guys at 135 since he's a natural featherweight. If a fight between both of them happened now at 140, I'd favor Pacquiao even at 40. Experience, added strength and speed would be too much for Loma. Loma's not scoring KO's against these bigger fighters just like Pac-Man has had a harder time knocking out 47 pounders.

          Is that why Loma finished the round retreating as Linares was on the attack? Did you watch the Campbell fight? Loma makes it apparent when he’s in danger after getting hit.

          Whom had Loma fought with a good KO ratio?

            Yes, Loma of course is cautious when a fighter is going to start throwing haymakers, but Loma has YET to be dazed in the pros.

            Never seen Loma stagger or unable to throw back.

            Not sure what a good KO ratio has to do with Pac, who hasn't knocked anyone out in 11 or more years. But you think he can knock out the P4P? Sure!

              Why was Loma on the retreat closing the round when Linares floored him?

              Isn’t a good chin when its able to withstand known power punchers with a strong KO ratio?

                Lol he's been baptizing welterweights to the canvas since Cotto!

                Dropped Mosley
                Dropped Marquez
                Dropped Bradley
                Dropped Algeiri
                Dropped Vargas
                Dropped Matthysse
                Dropped Thurman

                Loma is scared sht to fight even at 140! He would rather fight smaller guys

                This is prolly the first time a p4p candidate that has tendency to fight smaller men!

                    Well, technically, Pac has 100% KO rate at 135-140.

                    Loma is faster and a much better mover than Pac now.
                    But, Loma has not been hit by a left-cross like Pac's.
